Abstract: A process of producing glyceride oil having a very low content of non-hydratable phosphatides from fatty seeds and fruits is disclosed. In the process, the fatty material is instantaneously and for a very short time exposed to a high temperature at a controlled water content. The glyceride oil extracted from the thermally treated material has after water-degumming the same low contents of phosphorus, iron, calcium and magnesium as can be achieved by treatment with strong acid and alkali (superdegumming) of a conventionally produced glyceride oil.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the modification of immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) domains, IgSF fragments and fusion proteins thereof, especially to the modification of antibody derivatives, so as to improve their solubility, and hence the yield, and ease of handling. The inventors have found that this can be achieved by making the region which comprises the interface with domains adjoined to said IgSF domain in a larger fragment or a full IgSF protein, and which becomes exposed in the IgSF domain, more hydrophilic by modification. The present invention describes DNA sequences encoding modified IgSF domains or fragments and fusion proteins thereof, vectors and hosts containing these DNA sequences, IgSF domains or fragments or fusion proteins obtainable by expressing said DNA sequences in suitable expression systems, and a method for modifying IgSF domains, so as to improve their solubility, expressibility and ease of handling.

Abstract: A plastic trial lens includes a pinching
portion for pinching when a lens is loaded to a
trial frame. An injection molded article for the
trial lens and a molding apparatus for molding
the injection molded article are described, too.
The injection molded article molded by the
molding apparatus of an injection compression
molding machine has a pinching portion and a
liquid guide/reservoir portion around an outer
peripheral portion of a lens portion that are
molded simultaneously with molding of the
lens portion. When the injection molded article
is dipped into a hard-coat solution for dipping
treatment, the hard-coat solution is guided into
the liquid guide/reservoir portion and drops.
The solution that does not drop stays in the
liquid guide/reservoir portion, so that a coating
film having a uniform thickness can be formed
on the lens portion. When the liquid
guide/reservoir portion is removed, a plastic
trial lens equipped integrally with the pinching
portion can be finished.

Abstract: A mandrel for making a free standing diamond includes a TiN coated
molybdenum component and a graphite component. In a first embodiment for
forming a free-standing diamond film, the molybdenum component has a stepped
solid cylindrical shape with a central plateau having a side wall. The graphite ring
is provided around the plateau, and has an upper surface which is generally
coplanar with the plateau. The diamond film grows across the TiN coated
molybdenum component and the graphite ring. According to a preferred aspect
of the invention, the graphite ring is affixed about the plateau of the first
component by thermal expansion between the molybdenum and the graphite ring
during the CVD process. In a second embodiment, a graphite component is
provided with a recessed portion which receives a TiN coated molybdenum plug.
The graphite component and plug form a generally planar surface. The diamond is
coated across the plug and the graphite. In each embodiment, the different
coefficients of thermal expansion of the diamond film, the molybdenum, and the
graphite, the molybdenum tends to contract under the diamond and separate from
the diamond film. The graphite portion has increased diamond adhesion properties
and causes the diamond to crack in a controlled manner at the boundary of the
graphite and TiN coated molybdenum, preventing the film from shattering and
resulting in a razor clean break in the diamond film around its perimeter.

Abstract: An electrochemical cell (10), typically an air
depolarized cell of the button-type has non-reactive
elements significantly thinner than corresponding non-reactive
elements of prior art cells. Such elements are
thinner thanks to improved structures of such elements.
Among these elements is an anode can (24) which is made
from a metal strip structure having a high steel content.
Another element is the cathode can (40) which has a
modified temper and improved relative stiffness and
rigidity, while retaining sufficient ductility to tolerate
forming the cathode can. By so reducing the thicknesses of
non-reactive elements of the cell (10), and thus the volume
occupied by such non-reactive elements, the fraction of the
volume of the cell (10) devoted to holding
electrochemically reactive anode material (26) therein is
increased, yielding a corresponding increase in the
milliampere hour capacity of the cell.
